Every year, more than a half million infants --- 1 in every 8 babies--- are born premature. We don't yet understand all the factors that contribute to premature birth. The PREEMIE Reauthorization Act renews our federal commitment to finding the causes of premature birth by reauthorizing and expanding upon the 2006 PREEMIE Act (P.L. 109-450), to enhance research into the causes and prevention of prematurity. Join with March of Dimes advocates to tell your U.S. Senators and Representative to cosponsor the PREEMIE Reauthorization Act (S. 1440/H.R. 2679) and work for its swift passage. Go to the March of Dimes Advocacy Action Center now and tell your Members of Congress to support the PREEMIE Reauthorization Act (S. 1440/ H.R. 2679).This electronic message is sponsored by March of Dimes, a not-for-profit organization recognized as tax-exempt under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3).
